You can see the stock rear tie-downs that I use for the rear end, 5000 pound rated straps going to the tie-down loops on the bottom of the trike. I'm going to cross them over from now on.

The stuff in our Jeep. It's full. But our suitcase, clothes bags, food bags, backpacks, shoes, bass guitar and practice amp and a whole bunch of other stuff needs to go in there. Hence the mods for the trailer are needed.

Room for four tubs on the driver side of the trailer, just ahead of the trike rear fender.

The braces keep the top tubs from moving, whereas only using wall anchors and rope would allow them to shift up to 4 or 5 inches forward/backwards under heavy acceleration or braking.

One wall brace to keep the tubs from moving back towards the trike fenders, and the other to keep them from going forward. Cleats on the floor to keep the bottoms from moving around. So the tubs sit down between the cleats, and the second top layer of them is stacked on. Then ropes are ran from the bottom, up and over the top tub, and back down. Likewise another rope goes around the tubs away from the walls. So the tubs can't really go anywhere.

For tools that may be needed quickly, trailer things like locks for the hitch, spare screws, hooks, hold down straps, towing mirror.

A floor batten for some tubs that things like rags, wax, oil and other stuff can go in. Another one sits on that one for various travel supplies and things we need to take for rentals. Wall mount for the bungee cord to hold them from going anywhere.

Storage for the larger flashlight and the bar used on the rear fold-down stabilizer jacks. I intend to add more for things like the folding tire iron, torque wrench and some other stuff.

Here you can mostly see where I had to cut into the trailer body to get the weight distribution / sway control bar mounts on the frame. The distance to the ball center was a minimum of 27" and I only had 25.5. Only a small part of the body support frame (NOT the structural frame) and I filled that with some JB Weld. The duct tape was a temporary thing until I could make a better seal.

The weight of the wheel/tire mostly sits on the holder. LOOSEN YOUR MOUNTS BEFORE ADDING AIR TO THE TIRE!!! Don't ask how I know...

Spare tire holder; what can I say, I'm cheap. Saved $35 with some wood scraps and a bolt/nut. Pretty darned strong.

A magnetic light. Interestingly I tested one of these things to see how long the cheap, included AAA cells would last, so I could put fresh ones in. It wasn't very bright when I finally shut it off 56 hours later, but it was still going! I should have just kept those original batteries, lol!

Outside door of pass-through. Not intended for 75mph, hence the duct tape. Also use tape as a little 'roof' over the opening when the cord is passed through.

These are side-firing LEDs, so they aren't seen from anywhere but directly behind, but they point UP towards the tour pack, which reflects them as a bunch of little bright dots on it; but when you look, there aren't any lights there!
